Our Focus Now Is On Retailand Msme

Abstract

SYNDICATE BANK would like to go an expansion drive but in a difficult environment is refraining from forcing the pace. The bank's gross non-performing asset (NPA) ratio at the end of the third quarter stood at just 2.80%. Sudhir Kumar Jain, chairman and managing director, talks to FE's Shashidhar KJ on how his bank has managed to maintain asset quality with a two-pronged strategy of focusing on both large and small accounts by holding Lok Ada lats.
